Hasselbeck and Seahawks search for good news before heading to Dallas

Battered with broken ribs and humbled by a 2-4 start, Matt Hasselbeck sure could use some good news right now.

This season has been so ragged for the Seahawks, the quarterback nodded and joked of last weekend’s bye: “That’s a good matchup for us.”

Hasselbeck went to the Pro Bowl three times and the Super Bowl once with Bobby Engram as his wide receiver for most of this decade. They spent summer vacations together in Central Washington working out as their families played.

Then Engram left for Kansas City in free agency last spring.

Trufant working his way back onto field

Fans will be delighted to see Marcus Trufant back on the field for the Seattle Seahawks against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

A lot of the rest of us are just pleased to see that he still exists.

Since the start of training camp, when he was sidelined with a vaguely defined back injury, Trufant was the invisible man. He was cloistered inside the facility; rehabbing, the staff said.

Poor guy never saw the light of day, and he certainly didn’t get to watch practices or be much a part of the team.

“I was like a ghost,” Trufant said Monday. “But I was in there grinding, working hard trying to get back.”

Largent rips Snyder’s handling of team

Hall of Fame receiver Steve Largent said during a radio interview Tuesday that Redskins coach Jim Zorn considered resigning when owner Daniel Snyder decided Zorn would no longer call Washington’s plays.

Largent, who caught passes from his old friend for the Seattle Seahawks between 1976 and 1984, ripped the Redskins and Snyder during an interview on KJR radio of Seattle, saying he believed Snyder’s decision was an attempt to force Zorn’s resignation.

Zorn did consider resigning, Largent said, but ultimately decided not to quit on the team.

“Yes, he did consider it, and no, he did not want to give up those responsibilities,” Largent told KJR, “but they went to the point of pulling out his contract and saying, ‘You have got to do whatever the owner tells you to do.’ …

Offense? Seahawks didn’t have any offense

Seahawks have seven first downs, rush for franchise record-low 14 yards

One week after a near-flawless offensive display, the Seattle Seahawks were historic in their haplessness.

In Sunday’s 27-3 loss to the Arizona Cardinals at Qwest Field, the Seahawks managed a mere 14 rushing yards. It was the lowest single-game rushing total in the team’s 34-year history.

Seattle had just 128 yards of total offense, and 42 of those yards came on one play — a fake-punt pass completion from punter Jon Ryan to tight end John Carlson. The 128 yards matched the seventh-lowest total in franchise history.

The Seahawks finished with seven first downs, tying for the sixth fewest in team history. And Seattle failed to get a rushing first down, the fourth time that has ever happened.

All this offensive futility came one week after the Seahawks routed Jacksonville 41-0 with 379 yards of offense. On that day, Seattle looked like a probable contender in the NFC West.

On Sunday, the Seahawks simply looked feeble, particularly on offense.
